Assembly Line Quilting

I'm not sure if this is really a term used in quilting but I think it describes the technique perfectly and it really comes in handy when there are a lot of exactly the same or very similar blocks to make. In the video, I've got 16 of the same fpp blocks that I assembled using this method. I started by stitching all the green and white wedges together along their curve. Then I went to the foundation papers and glued the first red piece of fabric to all of them. Then I stitched a green and white wedge to all of them, then I pressed that seam on all of them.... you get the point.

This technique made the blocks really simple because I was so focused on only one step over and over again before moving on to the next step. It certainly reduces errors.


Turns out that chain piecing is not the only trick to making a lot of blocks fast! Assembly line quilting saves time!


I can’t wait to share the peppermint sweetness with you!!! Pattern releasing soon! Happy Quilting

Hi! I'm Jen, a quilt pattern designer, instructor, and founder of Snapdragon Quilting. I started Snapdragon Quilting in the spring of 2022 in memory of my beloved Grandma Louise—a talented seamstress, passionate crafter, and devoted gardener whose snapdragons inspired the company name.

I've been sewing for as long as I can remember and began designing my own quilts in 2006. Today, I create quilt patterns that combine bold color and modern design with approachable techniques and clear instructions. I love exploring different fabric combinations and layouts, so you'll often find multiple colorways and design options within my patterns.

Whether you're stitching your very first quilt or your hundredth, my goal is to help you create something beautiful while enjoying the process along the way. Welcome—I'm so glad you're here.
